70 watt halide w/actinc and moonlight and more(colorado springs)

mikey77 · #1 01/09/2008, 11:38 AM

Just looking to clear out some unused stuff. First off I have a current dual satellite fixture modified with a 70 watt halide. I just replaced one of the flourescent lamps with a 70 watt halide socket and swapped out the ballast for an aromat electronic hqi ballast. There is a compact flourescent actinic bulb, 18 watt I believe, a built in moonlight and I added a cooling fan with an adjustable power supply for speed control. Ballast is internally mounted within the fixture. Bulb is a 70 watt astralux 15k with about six months on it. Fixture worked great on my fiance's nano cube but the heater stuck on one night and killed everything. I'm asking $150.00 plus shipping.

There are more pictures of it in use in my gallery.

I'm also interested in selling the nanocube this was used on. It has been modified with a surface skimmer and a maxi-jet 900 and a lok line spraybar. Check my gallery for pics. I'd like to get $40 for it but will take offers. I'd also like to get rid of a tunze kalk dispenser. It has everything but the mount including the original packaging and directions. $20. All prices do not include any shipping costs. Thanks for looking!

Mike

what about a pump to use with the kalk dispenser?

Do you need some additional info? Somewhere along the line i lost the mount for it so it's basically just the container, some tubing and a small jar of tunze kalk. It's yours if you want it.

sorry that edited wrong. Did you have it run through a top off or dosing pump. and how well did it work

mikey77 · #5 01/09/2008, 01:32 PM

I had it running through my osmolator. Seemed to work well for the tank I had it on. My levels always tested really good. I've changed to a much smaller set-up now and don't use it anymore. In case you are wondering, the dispenser doesn't come with any kind of pump.

BTW, saw the locline spray bar in your gallery pictures and how it's wrapped all around almost the entire tank. Was wondering if you liked that and if it did a good job with flow and H2O movement in such a small tank?

Thanks for all the reply's and pm's guys, I think I have them all answered. Ocean in a box, I was very happy with the flow in the tank. Wish I would have taken some pics with the livestock in the tank. I had a green birdsnest and a purple montipora that just loved the flow created by the spray bar. Thanks again guys!

mikey77 · #14 01/10/2008, 12:27 PM

Yep I'd be willing to ship it.

is a 12 gallon and what make is it

mikey77 · #16 01/11/2008, 06:24 PM

it's a 12 gallon nanocube (jbj). comes with everything you need except a light. The 1/2" loc line spray bar is worth around $35 by itself I think and the maxi-jet 900 was only used for about 6 months.
